I popped into Cali and Mo today. What an amazing little Boutique! The store is about half vintage and half new merchandise. Some of the merchandise is repurposed vintage materials like these beautiful bracelets by Babes and Hussies.
I was also delighted that Cali and Mo sells a lot of local product. These bracelets are made in Colorado. As with this Autumn Teneyl dress which is sewn in Colorado and probably seen at a music festival on a dancing beauty or even in a vendor's tent. Save yourself the dirty feet and just go to Cali and Mo.
According to Cali and Mo fashionista, Katie who works at their Park Meadows location, Cali and Mo is named after the co-owners who live in Cali and Missouri and are just two girls looking to make a living. Ali hand makes lamps out of vintage materials. This particular lamp includes a vintage wedding dress and shade. This lamp would look so sexy in a bedroom.
At the back of the boutique hangs a vintage coat that is over 100 years old and as Katie said, "was worn before the titanic sank." If you love it but can't justify the money just use the Boutique's lay-away plan. They give you three months to pay anything off. I like the sound of that-they might just be getting a lot of my Christmas business!
Here is the coat that I am thirsting for. Look at the arms, what a beautiful shape.
I usually get a little worried about size in boutiques because often they don't carry anything over a 14 but Cali and Mo goes up to 3x on some of their designers. These sheer shirts would look cute over jeans and a camisole.
Want something unique? A bag that only you have. My mouth is watering over these bags. George, Gina and Lucy bags are handbags made in Germany and Cali and Mo have a very small collection, they buy unique pieces and for most styles they only buy one bag. That means that not everyone who has been to Coors field will have seen your bag. I am digging on this colorful bag.
Cali and Mo will help you stand out, look trendy, and have fun while shopping. Katie says that they will be bringing in an exciting new Tarina Tarantino line for the fall. Tarina Tarantino is girly, goth, hip and chic all at the same time. Her colors are bright, feminine or both. I am going back to Cali and Mo to check that out!
Cali and Mo have 3 stores in Colorado. Their original store is on the 16th street mall. The other two stores are in Cherry Creek and Park Meadows. If you don't live in Denver, they have a website: http://www.caliandmo.com/index.htm you can shop there. But, you won't get to see the beautiful displays and talk with the all-knowing and delightful Katie!
